'The Amazing Race' Season 28 Cast: Blair & Scott Dish on 'Little Things' Which Led To Elimination [VIDEO]
It came down to a literal footrace with Tyler Oakley and Korey Kuhl, but Blair and Scott Fowler were unable to keep themselves in season 28 of The Amazing Race.
The father/daughter duo were eliminated at the pit stop in Tbilisi, Georgia, just seconds after arriving behind Oakley and Kuhl, who beat them in the race for the sole remaining spot to continue the competition. Now, they are reflecting on their final leg, and admit looking back that it was a series of things that seemed to just work against them and lead to their downfall.
"I think it was definitely a series of lots of little things," Blair told Reality TV World. "Also, my knee had been hurt in a previous leg, and so, I think I was definitely pulling the team down a little bit."
"Yep, and I would say we were a little extra careful with not rush, rush, rushing because of Blair's knee," Scott added. "But I mean, in that episode, there were so many opportunities to catch up and to fall behind that it's difficult to isolate one."
"I think there was obviously a difference in the decision to stay at the candy vs. The wine task. Obviously that made a huge different because we would've left with the dancers originally and almost certainly would've gotten to the dance hall significantly before everybody else if we had done that, because Tyler and Korey didn't leave until the dancers had come back," he added.
Scott also added that his mistake upon leaving the Roadblock-where he accidentally picked up Oakley's bag and had to run back inside to return it-definitely didn't help them since Oakley and Kuhl had finished the task by that point, and were on their way out as well.
"The second one was obviously picking up [Tyler's] bag-that was sort of a little bit of a catastrophe because we were so close at the end, that I believe if we had taken advantage-even though they did pass us and they had a crazy fast cab driver and they clearly had their bags in the cab," he said. "Ours were in the trunk. There were just a whole bunch of little things at the end. And then you're splitting hairs, it could've gone either way, any way, at any point in the Race."
The Amazing Race airs Fridays at 8 p.m. on CBS.
